 Not compatible with my computer; a brand new Dell, 2006-01-10
This software will not work with my computer which has Windows XP Home on it. They provided two work-arounds, one didn't work and the other one was to start pulling RAM off of the computer. LUDICROUS! This product should not be marked as compatible with Windows XP.

 Gotta love I SPY!, 2002-08-04
We love all of the I Spy software and books. This one was not a disappointment. All of the I Spy games are simple for the very young child... So long as they can click the mouse, they can play the game. Clues are read to you so that reading is not necessary. This particular I Spy game is NOT as good as the others in the series, however it is a must have for any I Spy fan!

Very Cute., 2002-05-24
This is a very cute set of games all based on the I Spy books. In one game the kids search for items just like in the book, in another game they sort objects into venn circles. My two going on three year old son enjoys playing this for about a half an hour at a time. This helps develop visual discrimination among other things. Having said all of that, this is one of my least favorite computer games to watch him play. Compared to some of the others he has, I find this one to be a bit boring. But it's not me that is playing it. I'd rate it a high four or low five because of this one reason. Otherwise I think it's a fine set of games. The pictures are excellent. The skills that children learn in these games are good pre reading skills and that is good. Enjoy.

 Perfectly suited for preschoolers, 2002-04-30
My son just turned three and this program is perfectly suited to his skills. The six differect games within the program provide a good variety of activities. There's even one game where you can create you own I Spy page to print out. The oral directions are very clear and simple for little ones who cannot yet read.
I believe this game is time well spent on the computer. The program presents challenging thinking games and not just mindless flash. We also like the music that introduces and ends the program.

No legs, 2002-02-11
This game is great. My 46 month old really enjoyed it ... for about two or three hours, when she had played it out. There are a very limited number of "screens," and they don't even randomize their arrangement.It's a shame, because the puzzles with the circles (think Venn diagrams from elementary school math) are a wonderful twist. Therefore, I have to say the game "has no legs."
